Rosarian Academy students stack cups to help set Guinness Book of World Record

About 160 students in kindergarten through fourth grade at Rosarian Academy have helped make history in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the “most people sport stacking at multiple locations in one day.”

The students at the private Catholic school in West Palm Beach were among students from more than 2,800 schools who worked together in a one-day STACK UP! competition. Together, the schools stacked more than 500,000 speed stacks.

For the record, speed stacks are specialized plastic cups. The goal is to stack and unstack these cups in specific formations in as little time as possible. There’s even an association for this type of thing: the World Sport Stacking Association.

Rosarian Academy P.E. Teacher Lindsey Beylo organized the event at her school. Students met in the gymnasium and spent 30 minutes rotating between five stations, “stacking and un-stacking speed stacks and jumbo speed stacks with timers, scooters, relay races and an intense game of builders and bulldozers,” according to a press release.

It’s unclear what Rosarian Academy’s contributions were, although it will be receiving documentation of its contribution to the record.
